Abstract

Suppose that X_1X\_{1} and X_2X\_{2} are two selfadjoint random variables that are freely independent over an operator algebra B\mathcal{B}. We describe the possible operator atoms of the distribution of X_1+X_2X\_{1}+X\_{2} and, using linearization, we determine the possible eigenvalues of an arbitrary polynomial p(X_1,X_2)p(X\_{1},X\_{2}) in case B=C\mathcal{B}=\mathbb{C}.
